The capital expenditure for the six months relates to the deployment of the Next Generation Network, mobile cellular services and baseline technologies. The lower expenditure in this six-month period is largely due to a more rigorous focus on project selection, in accordance with the Company’s focus on efficient execution of its strategy. In addition, mobile capital expenditure decreased due to the shift to a more concentrated rollout. The current focus for the radio access network (RAN) is to complete current projects and to provide capacity to relieve congestion in identified growth areas. |
